What educators are saying

My students LOVED this project!! This is a wonderful resource for teachers and students. It is well put together. It requires very little teacher prep and directions were concise.
My students enjoyed the creation of the sweater. I will allow extra days next year to include with all of my students as a class activity rather than a small group.
